Here's the rule from the error:
<group name="syslog,access_control,">
<rule id="2501" level="0">
<match> esm</match>
<group>authentication_failed,</group>
<description>User authentication failure.</description>
</rule>
</group>
If I comment it out, it just says the next rule is a duplicate, and so on
and so on. None are overwrite rules.
